    @wlanboy, That traceroute to UK (guardian.co.uk) = retarded routing. What is super disturbing about that route is we have the upstream handoffs going on.   XO --> COGENT --> Level 3 --> then Level 3 goes to Chicago and gets lost. What is disturbing about that?  Colocrossing still supposedly...

    Who edited Jon out of something @nunim?  What did the original say?

    Super cheap dedicated servers!

    I wasn't even going there :) But... IPV4 is destroying the market in Europe.  Big IP "shortage" and lots of price whoopings going on. This will hit the US soon enough I suspect and it will be muck uglier there.

    Free VPS - Any specs

    No picking on the OP :)   We should have house rules about the free stuff. Luis is from Argentina I believe.  English not being his first language, some things may get lost in translation. So while he wants "free" I am not mistaking him as a mooch.  He did say was willing to trade for a VPS...

    i cant use thanks button

    We really need to boost the daily limits of THANKS.  I ran out of THANKS on vpsBoard the other day and it depressed me and led to drinking a few adult beverages and riding the ATV on my property while perhaps over the "legal" limits of caffeine. Lucky for me there weren't any SMOKIES, bears out...

    i cant use thanks button

    Well, unsure, but I just got an error while trying to thank you on the last comment.... An error occurred There was a problem storing your reputation vote. Perhaps it disallows thanks one after another on same thread.

    Serious note, if you thanked me @shovenose, I just saw two notifications.  So technically underneath it appears to work.

    Are you saying you were THANKFUL. Damn software. Damn the software. Post the error so the admins can debug it and see about resolving it.

    Super cheap dedicated servers!

    @shovenose being a prankster now I see :) I was buffaloed, for a second, until I looked at the WHOIS info. You would make a fine addition to the pranksters in Buffalo.  Datacenter aspirations, vague use of the word WE.  Unsure of your ASN, who owns the place, etc.

    Super cheap dedicated servers!

    Evoswitch has been popular here and there on offers in the past elsewhere. Do any of those companies actually do dedicated servers anywhere new the US pricing?

    Are we sure @shovenose isn't really Chris Fabozzi :) ?

    What are you listening to right now?

    I am just listening to the annoying hum of this tiny arse high RPM fan in this computer slowly grinding itself towards death.  Whiny little bastard.

    You poor boy @wlanboy :)  Interesting seeing CVPS route being so different from BuyVM's... That was a traceroute to cachefly.cachefly.net correct? That route is super stupid if so.  Cogent to Telia to XO to Cogent (NYC) to Level3 (Chicago) back to NY on Level3 to Washington DC on Level3 to NY...

    Awww, shucks @shovenose, I hate to pick on you. School me, who is UnmanagedServers?   What's their datacenter location and ASN? I went to their website and then started fashioning a noose for them. Check these funnies out: https://unmanagedservers.net/about.php UnmanagedServers.NET is part...

    Best web server when resources are not limited?

    I missed the last line, about large RAM and what would you use... Nginx is what I use.  Still use other servers though behind Nginx :)  Lots of Apache stuff that just works and porting it to Nginx isn't quick and easy to translate, rules, etc. Larger sites I'd do:  Varnish ---> Nginx --->...

    Super cheap dedicated servers!

    Well Europe has been drained a big way by large discount companies, a few of them controlling the market. But those companies have royally started to screw resellers with all sorts of surcharges for uses, responsiveness, etc. I think in the next year we'll see more Euro offers from new...
